'''Pandora's box''' is a recurring {{MFamilies}} in the {{DQSeries}}. | |||
Introduced in {{Dragon Quest VII}}, they are monstrous [[treasure chest]]s of an imposing black color rimmed on the edges with gold and teal tongues hanging out. | |||

It can use sudden-death moves that target the whole [[party]], move more than once per round, and steal {{MP}} from its opponent when its own {{MP}}, which is rather low, gets too depleted for it to cast its spells. The monster often has the ability to deliver desperate attacks with its bites. | ||
